About Sound Card Driver:
Usually, Windows operating systems apply a generic audio driver that allows computers to recognize the sound card component and make use of its basic functions.
When enabled by proper files, the characteristics of the sound card (like model, manufacturer, number of channels) are completely available to computers, and all its features are made accessible.
Updating the audio version can improve sound quality, resolve different compatibility issues, fix related errors spotted throughout the product’s usage, add support for new operating systems, and bring various other changes.
As for applying this package, the steps are quite simple since each producer intends to uncomplicate things for users: just download the package, run the setup, and follow the on-screen instructions.
Bear in mind that, even though other operating systems might be compatible as well, it is not recommend that you apply any software on platforms other than the specified ones. Also, when the installation has finished, do perform a restart to ensure that all changes take effect properly.
Therefore, if you wish to install this audio version, click the download button and apply the package. Remember to check with our website as often as possible to stay “updated one minute ago.”
It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.
Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.

OK after upgrading from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 Home (The Free Upgrade) I’m having Sound Issues.
IDT Sound Drivers (IDT High Definition Audio Codec):
The Speakers built into the Laptop: They Sound OK but not like they did in Windows 8.1.
I’ve already Tested out the Following:
Played Music (Sounded OK)
Played a Youtube Video (Sounded OK)
Played a video i have saved on my PC (Sounded OK)
Played a Show or Movie on Netflix (Sounded OK)
The Microphone Built into the Laptop Seems to be Working Fine.
Turtle Beach Z11 Headset: They Sound like Mono Instead of Stereo There’s Basically no Bass and The Sound is Low even if turned up the volume to 100.
I’ve already Tested out the Following:
Played Music (Sounded Bad)
Played a Youtube Video (Sounded Bad)
Played a video i have saved on my PC (Sounded Bad)
Played a Show or Movie on Netflix (Sounded Bad)
In Windows 8.1 The Speakers built into the Laptop and The Turtle Beach Z11 Headset sounded like Stereo and loud (Perfect).
The Headset Microphone Seems to be Working Fine.
I plugged my Turtle Beach Z11 Headset into my Sister’s HP that still has windows 8.1 and my Turtle Beach Z11 Headset sounded fine.
I plugged my Turtle Beach Z11 Headset into my other Sisters HP that has Windows 10 (She Upgraded from Windows 7) and my Turtle Beach Z11 Headset sounded like Mono Instead of Stereo.
She also plugged in her ear buds and they sounded like Mono Instead of Stereo.
I Tested another Headset my Turtle Beach P11 Headset(This Headset plugs into the USB Port) The Sound is Perfect it sounds like Stereo and not like Mono.
However when i talked into the Microphone i could hear my voice coming through the Headset Speakers (Basically hearing myself talk)

Click on Properties
Now just go through each Tab and change what you want to change.
I only Click on the Advanced Tab and change the Default Format to 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality)
Because that’s what the Default Format was on Windows 8.1
I Also Click on Recording and change the setting on the 2 Microphone’s Listed.

Still Notice Mono sound with your Headset ?
Try This:
Plug in your Headset
Right Click your Volume Icon in the right hand Corner
or
Right Click Start (the White Windows Icon located at the Bottom left hand of your screen)
Click on Control Panel
Click on Hardware and Sound
Click on Sound
Right Click on the Second Device Speakers (or whichever your’s are called)
Click on Disable
Right Click on the Second Device Speakers (or whichever your’s are called)
Click on Enable
Now Your sound will Sound like Stereo instead of Mono.
I Uninstalled IDT Sound Driver I went into control panel and uninstalled The IDT Audio Driver.
I then restarted my computer and i reinstalled the Windows 8.1 Drivers from HP.
After Restarting my computer again i checked to see if everything was back to normal but it wasn’t everything still sounded the same.
When i right Clicked on the Speaker Icon and then choose Playback devices Here is what was Displayed:
The Top Device is called:
Digital Display Audio (AMD High Definition Audio Device) Not plugged in
OK this Device is Normal.
The Middle Device is called:
Speaker / HP (IDT High Definition Audio Codec) Default Device
OK this Device is Also Normal.
The Bottom Device is called:
Communications Headphones (IDT High Definition Audio Codec) Default Communications Device
OK in Windows 8.1 this Device was Disabled by Default but in Windows 10 it’s Enabled and listed as Default Communications Device.
So i figured if i just disabled it my Turtle Beach P11 Headset would go back to normal but it didn’t it still sounded the same i even Restarted my Computer.
OK so i tried setting Communications Headphones as the Default Device but when i right Clicked and choose Set as Default Device it wouldn’t let me.
I then Disabled Speaker / HP and tried to Set as Default Device it wouldn’t let me.
When i Disabled Speaker / HP Groove Music said it couldn’t Detect a Audio Device so i enable Speaker / HP and Disabled
Communications Headphones.

So after reading through countless posts trying every fix which none of them resolved the issue i went into Control Panel and took a look the the Dolby Advanced Audio Control Panel Now I’ve never messed with this before until now but i was able to fix the Audio Issues Here’s Exactly what i did:
When using your Speakers built into the Laptop or Possibly any other Speakers:
Right Click Start (the White Windows Icon located at the Bottom left hand of your screen)
Click on Control Panel
Click on Hardware and Sound
Click on Dolby Advanced Audio
Click on listening experience
Check the box next to Dolby Advanced Audio

You’ll have to keep the Box Checked when you’re going to use your Speakers built into the Laptop otherwise they will Sound like Mono and crappy.
So Basically when you Plug in your Headset uncheck the Box.
So Basically when you Unplug your Headset check the Box.
If you have messed with any of the setting and want to go back to Default:
Click on advanced settings
Click on Reset

I wasn’t able to Downgrade to Windows 8.1 because it said the files where deleted even though windows.old was still there so i just did a Reset instead.
Thanks to My Temporary Solution the Audio Issues are Gone But Hopefully HP Releases New Drivers so i don’t have to use My Temporary Solution.
Also i Hope HP or Microsoft Releases New Drivers for The Synaptics TouchPad so that people can Save their settings.
This Was Fixed By James Yerkes on Microsoft Community:
Open up regedit.exe
Note this is LOCAL MACHINE, not CURRENT USER.
Look for a key in that Install folder called DeleteUserSettingsOnUpgrade
Double click and change the value to 0
Now go back to the Synaptics control panel, set everything how you like, and reboot.
Anyways if anyone has Issues with Windows 10 Post here and I’ll see if i can help you But i Recommend Resetting your PC in the Recovery Menu so that most Issues will be resolved Then i would install all of my Drivers from the Manufacturer.
I’m currently using Window 8.1 Drivers from HP and 1 Driver from AMD.

This may not work for everyone but if you have the same Laptop and Headset i do then it should work.
